The Wharf has been an established restaurant and seafood market for years but for some reason I had never heard of it until recently. We dined there for dinner club earlier this year and I immediately knew it was going on my list of places in The Valley to take out of town guests to. The fresh seafood is wonderful, the atmosphere very comfortable and homey and the service was great. It is a small building and has a fish market/full bar combo in the front, restaurant seating and outdoor patio in the back. Because it is rather rustic I didn't expect much from the bathroom but I was pleasantly surprised.
I just did not expect there to be any effort given to the design or comfort of the restroom in this bustling little eatery/seafood market. But someone had taken the time to decorate and include items for making the patron's trip to the restroom more comfortable.
This restroom had some nice little touches as you can see in this photo of the settee where my bag, Flava Flave, is shown resting. There were also a couple of little artificial palm trees in the corners which were nice touches.
There was a sea shell wall border at the ceiling and a seascape adorned coat rack on the wall. Who's coats hung there and for how long, I do not know, but it was nice to see a place to hang one's coat was included just the same. The basin and mirror were stylish and the restroom, overall, was clean and well stocked. The only draw back to these facilities was the fact that the floor was rather slippery/greasy/oily. Not sure why but I suspect maybe from all the ongoing deep frying of the fish. If you have any other theories, please share. All in all, I give this privy 2 1/2 out of 3 rolls. 1 for comfort, 3/4 for style and 3/4 for cleanliness. The Wharf is a very fun place with good food and an above average ladies' room. Just make sure you wear shoes with some traction.
